From his email, posted with Mr. Wood’s permission:

As most of you know, after a 3 day trial, on Friday the city prevailed in preserving the Cape Henry beaches for public use and for the placement of sand from the Lynnhaven Inlet dredging project.

We do anticipate that people dissatisfied with the ruling will come to the VMRC hearing tomorrow to try to block the project.

If you live in the area and want to preserve the beaches for the public’s use and for the placement of sand from the federal dredge project, please consider attending this meeting and making your voice heard.

VMRC Meeting:  7/28/09, 9:30AM

Virginia Marine Resources Commission
2600 Washington Avenue
Newport News, VA 23607-0756

Feel free to forward this to others!

Thanks,
